When someone has overcome substance abuse problem, it isn't as easy as picking up where you left off. Getting back to a successful and happy life takes time and a great deal of effort. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is a place where recovering individuals can go where they can live in a clean and positive environment until they can live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's probation for example, or the individual may decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, tenants of a Halfway House are clean and striving to do what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean finishing school, finding employment, etc.
Halfway Houses in Alamo Heights are operated by people who in most cases were once residents of the house. The duration an individual is allowed to remain at the Halfway House will differ, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants must submit to drug and alcohol testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will happen intermittently to make sure there is not any drug or alcohol use in the house or addiction problems that would be more effectively dealt with in an addiction rehab program.
